I'll start with some very basic comp specs:
==============================
ASUS P4P800 SE 800MB FSB
P4 Proc @ 3.2 GHZ
512 DDR
Geforce Ti 4200
Soundblaster 5.1 audigy
Win XP SP2
A little while ago I was having problems with my computer randomly turning off. It became so often that I couldnt turn my computer on anymore. I had my PSU replaced and it now works again. However, over the course of a few months Ive noticed my comps ability to process graphics (yes im a gamer) to get worse and worse. I was just playing so GW this morning and I started to get very bad frames, and the ground de-texturized and then my computer shut off. I do not want to have my comp shutting down every 5 mins....
I want a new GFX card (ATI radeon X800XL, only because my MB isnt PCIE compatible), but do you think this is my GFX card going to crap, or could it maybe be some faulty RAM. Or anything else you may know of.
Thx alot~
